This film was a lot of fun. I don't know if it matters if you see it on the IMAX screen but I did and I loved it. The train wreck scene on IMAX was incredible. To me this movie is a B+. It may not be the next E.T. but it certainly has a lot of entertainment value to it. If I had any complaints it would be with the ending but even that doesn't ruin this movie also I don't think this is a movie for very young children. There is some dirty language and a few scenes that are a bit too dark for the very young but the film is rated PG13. This is not the best movie ever but it's pretty damn good. It's worth the price of the ticket. Very well acted by the young cast of virtual unknowns. It has lots of jumps and surprises at certain points and is lighthearted at other time. I can't speak for everyone but I saw it opening weekend and the theater that I was at was packed and no one walked out during the film. The most common review that I have read and agree with about Super 8 is that this isa great summer movie. Get the popcorn and grab a seat.

In a sea of crap that fills the airwaves I was surprised at how many people on this site that actually seem to hate this show. I agree that this is not the best show ever but it is far from the worst. The characters are very funny the writing which may not always be the best seems to be well crafted to the actors/characters. Throughout the seasons each of these people has grown on me and with the introduction of the new females actors the show has gotten even funnier. I like both Bernadette Rostenkowski, Amy Farrah Fowler.

I also enjoyed the almost Rosanne reunion between Leonard (Johnny Galecki) and Leslie Winkle (Sara Gilbert). I think the show still has lots of promise with very enjoyable characters. I will continue to watch.

This movie doesn't seem to compare to the horror movies of today but I remember really liking this film when it came out. It may have been considered much better back when the film was released. I had read the book first when it came out before seeing the film and thought it was fantastic. I found it to be a great story and played very well in my mind. Though most seem to have a complaint about the special effects/ cheesiness of the film. I think they fair well in the time frame that the movie was made, plus to this day the swimming pool scene still gives me a chill. If the special effects don't work for you try reading the book and see if your imagination doesn't bring this story to life for you. I gave it an 7 because I felt it was a good solid movie and that is what I would have rated it back in 1978.
